Monaco parcel bomb attack on Ukrainian tycoon captured on surveillance camera

Ukrainian officials have released footage they say shows the bomb attack on a Ukrainian tycoon in Monaco.

Ukraine's Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko said on Friday, July 17, that investigators recovered key evidence in the case of the attempted assassination of Vadym Iermolaiev on 29 June.

Specialists from the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) restored a surveillance camera recording that suspects had allegedly attempted to destroy, Mr Kravchenko said.

The camera was installed near the scene in advance to obtain confirmation that the alleged contract killing had been carried out, according to the prosecutor general.

Mr Iermolaiev was left fighting for his life after the blast, with a woman and child also injured.

A Ukrainian woman suspected of being behind the attack has been found shot dead near Kyiv, Ukrainian prosecutors said.
